• Jul. 6, 2005 - A Camping Adventure to Remember!

Here is a list of all the things I forgot to remember to take on our four day, three night wilderness camp:

 

Salt and Pepper,(hubby had some though, those little packs you get in the fast food places....)

Skillet,

Oil,

Husbands second pair of jeans,

flour,

sugar,

griddle,

catchup, or ketchup, or however you want to spell that,

coffee cups,

insides of the camp coffee pot,

motion sickness medicine for daughter who doesn't do well on long trips,

um.....think that's all.....

 

 

Luckily, someone "else" in the party had some of the things I forgot.(Good thing we brought our friend P.J. along,  He had a well stocked rubbermaid tub or two.)

 

We were convoying, since it takes two vehicles to haul six of us, plus the dog and all the camping gear---although I forgot to remember a lot of it......and we got about 80 or so miles from home when I realized we forgot to remember to get my son's insulin out of the fridge......I know that sounds pretty serious, although he did have a three day supply with him, we still needed to take the rest "in case."  So, hubby broke rank and headed for a pharmacy......while we headed on up to the mountains along with 80 thousand other people escaping the city.......then my brakes went out on I70----so we had to find a parts store and hubby, bless his heart, did the quickest brake pad change over in history........

 

Well, then that first night we froze, (I forgot to mention that I forgot to remember several of the comforters I intended to bring......the sleeping bags were just too wimpy to keep us warm) SO, we headed into town the next day and bought really nice sleeping bags.  (Steamboat Springs was right on the way to the camping area we intended to reach the first day, but didn't)

 

The rest of the trip was wonderful, there were f ields of wildflowers that I had fun identifiying, and we saw several deer, a fox, bald eagles and had a wonderful time.  The tent only leaked a little, and we all survived nicely.

 

The kids shot arrows, made forts, played in the creek.  We did some target practice, and ate, and ate, and ate.  WHY are we so hungry up there in the mountains?  Seems like we cook all the time.

 

Hope to post some photos if they turn out! (If I don't forget to remember to!)

• Jul. 6, 2005 - Oh My!

Posted by HappyApple
No skillet!!!
No coffee cups!!!
Praise the Lord your friend had what you didn't! LOL

Sounds like a wonderful time from what I read, and from what you told me. =)
Well.. besides those 'character building' moments that happend along the way.

I don't know what it is either about being hungry in the mountains... maybe it is because if you don't catch it, haul it, build it.. you don't eat it, drink it, or sleep in it! LOL (Even liver taste good when camping!)

Oh I can't wait to go camping! Speaking of easy dinners! I just love to buy those already made pancake mixes for camping. Just add water, shake, pour and flip! mmmmmm

Hi Nancy,

About the photo at my blog....
Yes I do have silly glasses on too. We were going to a Halloween party and my husband and I don't really get dressed up so we just wore black. But I bought cat ears and cat eye glasses for fun.
I bought my husband a goofy wig and wanted him to go as The Donald. But he didn't want too. Ah well. I tried :o)

About Me


Hi There!

Welcome to my blog.
How nice of you to drop in. What is this all about you say? Well, take a look and see.

Just like the plants springing forth we are following the Son, soaking up the living water and pulling the weeds. We can't wait to see what will bloom THIS growing season!

Oh, and just for fun, I will tell you a little about me, since that is what this space is for. :)

I am a mother of four lovely kids who are perfectly human in every way. They are sinful, selfish, loving, happy, grumpy, excited, capable, frustratable, (I know, that isn't a word but sometimes I make up my own) and sometimes contrite, and just like their parents. But they are ours and we think they are all keepers!

We have homeschooled them all since birth with the trial and error method. I think they all have "made the grade" and they are now 16, 13, 11 and 9 years old.


We're not experts, except in the area of making mistakes and living to tell about them and hopefully learn from them! We hope you will find some encouragement here as you read about the seasons of our life as a homeschooling family.
